Open an excel file in a jsp

using apache poi excel, i created a workbook and add that into the season and opened in new jsp by servletoutputstream(these are happening at onclick).
first time it's working fine,
if i try do it again without closing this jsp, I am getting the same results in the previous jsp.But this works fine if i close the the jsp and do that.

That's fine, but you can serve up an Excel file (for download) with a couple lines of code. That doesn't require Spring. Too often I see these noobs working on a web project and throwing half a dozen frameworks at it because people told them to or recommended them. Noobs don't often know better and I have no doubt that some of them would attempt to use Spring just to get an Excel file to download if they were told to. But then again, that's their problem I guess.You win. What did I win?The debate, of course.
Do you realize how often this question is asked and how many times the code has been posted?! No, which is why I asked. Please post them just one more time.Nobody likes a smart@ss. I seriously doubt, as much time as you spend here, that you truly believe that. Yes, I'm calling you a liar.

Besides, I have no interest in helping to set a precident that there's no need to do any research when you can simply ask for a handout here. Posting the code, or not, is still a better response than recommending Spring.Fine. Post the code.
%knock yourself out!
in 60 seconds I found a half dozen posts of the same exact code

Opening an excel file in jsp

how do you open an excel file in my jsp and target it to a table?

can't it be done using the file class?
i just want to open the excel file, that's all--
Open means what ?
See if this is useful
String myDB = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls)};DBQ=c:/book.xls;"
+ "DriverID=22;READONLY=false";
//con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:myExcel");
con=DriverManager.getConnection(myDB,"","");
dbmd=con.getMetaData();
stat=con.createStatement();
rs=stat.executeQuery("Select * from `Sheet1$`");//[Sheet1$]--
I think it is not possible with File class. and if it is so
then how you are going to handle the data ?

Open an excel file from jsp

Hi,
I want to open an excel file on click of a link in the jsp.
At present iam using href which i feel is not correct as it is not able to recognize the excel format and paints the entire screen with special characters.Can anyone please help me out.
Thanks,

In your server, there should be some way to tell the server the mime type of a file based on the file's extension. So, you tell the server for every file with the extension of .xls, it should use the mime type of application/vnd.ms-excel. Then, when the link is clicked on, the browser will receive the mime-type message of application/vnd.ms-excel and will open Excel to work with the file.
Hope this helps,
Ron

Opening Excel files from a JSP page

Hi,
I am not able to open up an Excel file through JSP.
I am using following code snippet in JSP page
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","inline; filename=Test.xls");Do i need to do additional settings for rendering Excel from a JSP
Thanks in advance !!!

Hi,
In my application , we have Excel files on the server i.e we are not creating excel sheets.
I just want to display these static excel files through a jsp.
I am able to display the excel files by reading them into ByteArrayOutputStream
<%
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=B.xls");
ServletOutputStream so = response.getOutputStream();
String filename = "D:\\Test.xls";
String mimetype = "application/vnd.ms-excel";
ByteArrayOutputStream output = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(filename));
byte bytebuff[] = new byte[500];
for(int lengthread = 0; (lengthread = in.read(bytebuff)) != -1;){
output.write(bytebuff, 0, lengthread);
byte data[] = output.toByteArray();
response.setContentType(mimetype);
so.write(data);
in.close();
so.close();
%>But my question is that , do i really need to do all this for rendering excel through a jsp.
Can't i do it by just setting the content type ?
Thanks

Opening multiple excel files thorugh a servlet

Hi
In my system , i have excel reports in my server disk . And i am opening the excel files through an servlet class like /viewReport.do?id=23 .....and thus from the servlet will open my excel file .
After opening one excel file , i try to open another excel by clicking that link , then my system often hangs else excel shows an error saying "a report with name viewReport.do is already open " even though both of these files are different on the server
How can i avoid this ??
The reason why i am opening the excel file through a servlet is , i need to perform some operations before opening that excel report
Can any one let me know how to go abt this ??

Microsoft Forms and Microsoft Visual Basic while opening the Excel file

Hello,
I have issues with 2010 64 bit Office Pro Plus Excel. Whenever I open an Excel file (97-2003 worksheet) which has macros then I get below 2 errors in sequence.
Please note that all macro settings are enabled and below are my system configs.
Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit,
MS Office Pro Plus 2010 64 bit with SP2.
Googled all and tried but in vein and also note that I dont have any .exd files under ../forms to delete. Please help.
Please note that for others with same system config/office versions and same 97-2003 worksheet it works so issues is only in my system.
First Error
Microsoft Forms
Could not load an object because it is not available on this machine.
Second Error
Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications
Compile error in hidden module: MainUtilities2.
This error commonly occurs when code is incompatible with the version, platform, or architecture of this application. Click "Help" for information on how to correct this error.
Thanks.

Your macro's will not run in a Office 64 environment only in a 32bit environment. The 64bit environment has a whole different setup and macro's created in an earlier 32 bit environment will stop working.
So if you want to use them in a 64 Office environment you have to rewrite the macro's.
have a look here:

Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper (v 2.8). Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components.
The effects of having actually used MacKeeper to do anything are a completely different matter. The fastest way to take an exquisitely designed and painstakingly engineered Mac and make it run like a steaming pile of dung is to install and use such ill-conceived "cleaning" or "security" products. This is just one example of a broad category of time- and money-wasters capable of causing damage that can only be rectified by reinstalling OS X, restoring from a backup, or completely erasing your system and rebuilding it from the ground up. Never install such junk on a Mac.
If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.

Hi, i'm new using numbers, and when I try to open a excel file don't let me do it, instead appears a box whit a error and close app, any help?

Hi, i'm new using numbers, and when I try to open a excel file don't let me do it, instead appears a box whit a error and close app, any help?

What does the error say?
A couple of thoughts: the file is corrupted or is password-protected. Corruption is more likely to cause Numbers to crash & Numbers cannot open password-protected Excel files. Try using one of the free Office clones & see what happens.

Intermittent Error 41106 Error when trying to open an Excel file.

I am having an intermittent problem while opening an Excel file. The problem only occurs occasionally during execution of my program. My program has a cluster of buttons each button opens a sub VI that is part of a calibration process. The first VI generates an EXCEL filename that is used to save all calibration data. A template is opened, data is placed in this template, and then it is saved under the generated filename. Most of the time this seems to work fine, but every once in a while I receive a -41106 error indicating that Microsoft EXCEL did not open. As far as I can tell when I run each sub VI independently they work fine and no errors are generated. Does anyone know why this might be happening? I would appreciate any help.
Thanks

What version of LabVIEW and the Report Generation Toolkit are you using? I remember adding some code in the 1.1 version of the toolkit to attempt to avoid some Microsoft Excel latencies with opening/closing the application repeatedly, but it was by no means fool proof, since Excel sometimes takes its sweet time leaving memory when the application exits. Without knowing any more specifics, my best suggestion is for you to add a small delay between successive operations regarding opening/closing Excel and see if that helps. Also, if you could post a simple VI that demonstrates the behavior, that would be extra helpful.
Oh yeah, and another suggestion would be to open one report reference at the beginning of your program, and use this reference through the whole thing...I understand that this might not be possible, though, if you're opening different worksheets throughout the course of your application running.
Good luck,
-D
P.S. - For those of you reading this wondering why I would automatically assume MegaMan is using the Report Generation Toolkit, he cites error -41106, which is an error specific to this toolkit.

Office 2013 can't open word, excel files from the network after upgrade to 8.1

Hello,
Recently, I upgraded all PCs from WIN 8 to Win 8.1. After the upgrade I noticed that I can't open any word documents and excel files. Before the upgraded I have no problem opened any files. All PCs have over 500GB free space on hard drive. Other PCs that
run Win 7 have no problem open them only the one with Win 8.1. This is what I got:
I right click--> property and there is no unblocked. All files resided on the network server.
Please help.
Jimmy

Hi Jimmy,
Did you get any error message when you try to open an Excel file/Word document?
If so, you can post the error message and event log here.Also ,if you had antivirus software installed, try to disable them to test this issue.
In addition, what happens if you add the network server location as a trusted location?

Opening an Excel file configures MSO Pro 2007

Using Win7 & MSO Pro 2007.
When I try to open an Excel file two unusual things happen after the splash window opens
1> A message box opens and says stdole32.tlb. When dismissed by clicking
[OK]...
2> A window opens and starts to configure MSO Pro 2007 which takes 20-40 seconds to complete
Taking a clue from KB 2528748 ..
3> I looked in the registry at: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\Options and
found no NoReReg Key, so
4> I executed , in the RUN BOX..
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
The registry now contains the appropriate noReReg key BUT the the behavior remains unchanged.
Is this likely due to the unclear message about stdole32.tlb at
1>?
Could some one help me unravel and fix this nuisance problem?
Thanx
Arvin

Hi,
Please try the following method and check if it is helpful:
Right Click the Excel>Properties>Compatibility>Choose Run this program in compatibility mode and Run this program as administrator
Copy/paste a new stdole32.tlb from installation copy or other pc

Opening an excel file from a button. square brackets in filename

Internet explorer 6. Apex 3.1
When I open an excel file (via a button) , it has the filename as follows:
production_report[1].csv
The prompt to save or open has the name as production_report.csv
This prevents people saving the opened file as square brackets are not allowed in the file name.
Is this an apex issue (ie a problem with the way I specify the filename) or a browser issue, and is there a solution?
I am passing the filename in to my excel download page using the items/values settings.
eg
ITEM P12_FILENAME
ITEM VALUE production_report.csv

Yes, It works on firefox. It is only an issue with Internet Explorer.
However our web based application has to use IE and therefore when it calls apex it is in an IE browser.
I am really just producing a csv file, and opening it in excel. If this was fixed (or customisable in some way in IE that would help)

How to stop prompt while opening an excel file in new window

hi all
i made one table in jsf and i am having two icons corresponding to each row one for open and one for save. on the click of open i am calling web services getting the excel file and opening it but it is happening only . when i choose to open option from the prompt which comes when i click on the link. how to remove that prompt so that on click of the open it should directly open the excel file. plzzzzzzzzz hepl

in the url of the new page that you are opening add --> &RetainAM=Y at the end.
Following points should be useful :
Suppose ,you have to open a new window from your page by clicking on a link or a button and after opening, when you click on any button in the parent page, if you are getting a session out error… try the following solutions:
1.     Add retainAM=Y in the destination URI of the button or link
2.     If you have the back button handling in your code, ensure that…
if (!pageContext.isBackNavigationFired(true)) is written instead of
if (!pageContext.isBackNavigationFired(false))
3.     Also ensure that the trasaction name is exactly same in both startTransactionUnit and end TransactionUnit
TransactionUnitHelper.startTransactionUnit(pageContext, "sameName");
TransactionUnitHelper.endTransactionUnit(pageContext, " sameName ");

Problem while opening the excel files

Hi
In my system , i have excel reports in my server disk . And i am opening the excel files through an action class like /viewReport.do?id=23 .....and thus from the action class i open my excel file .
After opening one excel file , i try to open another excel by clicking that link , then my system often hangs else excel shows an error saying "a report with name viewReport.do is already open " even though both of these files are different on the server
How can i avoid this ??
The reason why i am opening the excel file through an action class is , i need to perform some operations before opening that excel report
i tried by setting the
response.setHeader("Content-disposition","attachment; filename=myWorksheet.xls");
and i kept on changing the names but that doesnt work
Can any one let me know how to go abt this ??

Hi Sir,
I found you posted the issue in the
APS.NET forum, and you seems use some code to open the file. Have you tried the last link in the thread?
Then, let's do some test to narrow down the issue.
I notice that you are using Office 2010, does the issue occur only with 'Reachlocal.xlsx' or every existed file?
If every Excel file has the issue, please try the following methods:
Open the file in
safe mode.
Repair Office 2010.
On the other hand, this problem might be caused by malware on the affected machine. There are now two known variants of malware which causes this problem: Win32/Crilock.A and
Win32/Buma!rts. They have both been identified as a new family of
ransomware.

If you have any further assistance about code/program, I recommend you post the question to MSDN forum:

I´m trying to open an excel file in numbers not being successful. The error msg is unexpectedly error using plugin SFCompatibility can you help me?

I´m trying to open an excel file in numbers not being successful. The error msg is unexpectedly error using plugin SFCompatibility can you help me? Already changed the extension of the excel document to xlsx an now gives an unknown import error.

In Excel have you tried saving directly to xls (not xlsx) and opening the xls in Numbers?
If you have a complicated workbook in Excel that uses lots of Excel's advanced features, Numbers may not be able to handle the import. It does pretty well on basic things, though.
If you're just trying to get data into Numbers, then often copy-paste from Excel is easier than trying to open xls files.
